Backstage Lyrics by Garrett Williamson

The Beat Demon

2014

[Verse 1]
Lights down, crowd screams, he’s off the stage
Tens of thousands came to see his face
Every girl’s got a crush on the freak
But he disguises all of his disgrace
'Cause he sings a song
Everyone sings along
But he’s not for real
He won’t let the truth unveil

[Chorus]
Everyone in the world knows who he is
Crazy thing, he’s just sixteen
But no one knows what’s going on inside his head
'Cause when he’s backstage, that’s the end of his scene

[Verse 2]
All the girls wait for him behind the curtain
But none of it satisfies
He’s gotta act like he’s not hurtin’
He just wants to be alone sometimes

[Chorus]
Everyone in the world knows who he is
Crazy thing, he’s just sixteen
But no one knows what’s going on inside his head
'Cause when he’s backstage, that’s the end of his scene

[Verse 3]
Getting drunk, taking drugs, just to make it go away
But it never does, it always stays
Buying everything to keep himself happy
'Cause when he’s backstage, all the beauty decays
(Well I gotta tell you something. This song explains a lot of people. Just wanna say)
Don’t be that guy
